Reports <code>catch</code> blocks that are empty or may ignore an exception.
<p>While occasionally intended, empty <code>catch</code> blocks may complicate debugging.
    Also, ignoring a <code>catch</code> parameter might be wrong.</p>

<p>
    The inspection won't report any <code>catch</code> parameters named <code>ignore</code>, <code>ignored</code>, or <code>_</code>.
</p>
<p>
    You can use the quick-fix to change the exception name to <code>_</code>.
</p>
<p><b>Example:</b></p>
<pre><code>
  try {
    throwingMethod()
  } catch (ex: IOException) {

  }
</code></pre>
<p>After the quick-fix is applied:</p>
<pre><code>
  try {
    throwingMethod()
  } catch (_: IOException) {

  }
</code></pre>
<!-- tooltip end -->
Use the <b>Do not warn when 'catch' block contains a comment</b> option to ignore <code>catch</code> blocks with comments.
